With Next, it is still apparent that you are paying full price for the phone. I think a lot of people will choose to keep their phones and lower their bills. With the old 2 year contracts, your bill stayed the same regardless, so it was a no-brainer to get a $500 phone for $200.
But people will still jump carriers. I just signed up for AT&T's plan in September. If I'm not satisfied after I pay off the phones, I'll probably jump back to Verizon. Much more to it now than just 2 year contracts. Some people always want the latest and greatest and will buy the new phones. Some, like me, would prefer a lower bill and buy one a model older to save $100 over the life of the contract.
